POPULARITY
This week it's HQ Trivia's Scott Rogowsky. I mean, that's where you may know him from, but I know him as writer, comic, and the host of "Running Late With Scott Rogowsky". Lots of fun stuff in this one. I'll be back next week with another solo ep for your Thanksgiving commutes, and/or blocking out your families. And special thanks this week to Alex Brizel, of @showbrizstudios for the recording and the space! @scottrogowsky @jimtews
